In the crowded hives of mm;
Heart weary of building and spoiling
And spoiling and baildlnr again.
And 1 long for that dear old river
Where 1 dreamed my youth away)
For a dreamer lives forever,
And a toller dlea In a day.
I am sick of the showy seeming
Of a lire that Is half a lie;
Of the faces lined with scheming,
In the throng that hurries by.
From the sleepless tbocghts endeavor,
X would go where the children play;
For a dreamer lives forever.
And a toller dies In a day.
I feel no pride, bnt pity
For the burden the rich endure;
There Is nothing sweet In the city
Bnt the patient life of the poor.
Oh, the little hands so skillful,
And tho child mind choked with weeds,
Tho daughter's heart grown wilful.
And the father's heart that bleeds.
No, Nol from tho street's rude bustle;
From trophies of mart and stage,
I would fly to the wood's low rustle,
And the meadow's kindly page.
Let mo dream as of old by the river.
And be loved for the dream alway ;
For a dreamer lives forever.
And a toller dies in a day.

EditorialNotes.
Pkinoeton colli.gb has conferred
the degree of Doctor of Laws upon
President Harrison.
The first Kansas wheat has reached
Chicago and is annonnced "of superb
quality," and weighed C3J pounds to
the bushel.
We are glad to note that Mortgage
Circular Galloway has been bounced
from his office as U. S. Land Commis
sioner at Guthrie.
Did you ever notico that a deaf
man's boots invariably creak ! Law
rence journal.
Well, what of it?
President Harrison pays full
fare whenever he takes a railroad trip.
He thinks that is what the inter-state
commerce law means.
The Lawrence Tribune thinks
there arc two reasons why the Arkan
sas river neer overflows its banks. In
the first place it has no banks, and in
the next it has no water.
The railroads with their acouHtom-
ed generosity, wliich Is also very
hard business sense will make a one
fare rate for tho old soldiers to the
Milwaukee encampment .
It really looks at this date as if the
Democracy will make re-submissioii
their slaan again in the State cam
paign next year. Surely the Lord is
good and merciful to the Republicans
of Kansas.
The Pekin (China) Gazette will
next month enter upon its 1000th vol
ume. It closes a brief review of its 999
years of history, la a 'recent number,
with tbe gratifying announcement
"We have come to stay.''
A novel by the late D. R. Locke,
(Petroleum V. Nasby), is soon to be
published, to bear tbe title, "The
Demagogue." The scene is "laid in
Ohio and about a thousand politicians
are getting ready to dodge.
It is really surprising what the prac
tice of small economies will do for a
man. Ben Butler chews gum a great
deal, but he always carries a silver
snuff box to carry it in when it is not
In his mouth and he is worth over a
million dollars.
George T. Anthony was recently
seen holding a private conversation
with "Farmer" Funston's shoemaker.
Kansas City Star.
And the shoemaker informs us con
fidentially that the ex-Governor found
the shoes several sizes too large and
went away sorrow ful.
Senator Evartb is as thin and
wrinkled as a resurrected mummy,
and yet he is a hard worker and a high
liver and has never been sick a day in
bis life. When asked recently how
he managed to work so hard and eat
so much and yet keep his health he re
plied, "By never taking exercise!"
Senator Plumb will be at home
this week for the first time since tbe
close of the session, and will remain
during the month of July. In Au
gust he will go out with the Senate
"Arid Lands" committee, on a tour
of investigation as to the feasibility of
the much talked of reservoir system.
Poor old Jubal Early wants to be
struck by lightning if he ever disowns
the Lost Cause. This sounds pretty
serious; but as a matter of fact light
ning has bad but few terrors for Mr.
Early since he ran against a certain
Phil. Rhnriilnn rlnwn in trin Rhpnitn-
doah valley some twenty-five years
Besides sending liberal donations
to the sufferers the Philadelphia banks
have loaned $1,000,000, without inter
est, to be used in clearing the Cone
maugh valley. "Vast aggregations
of capital" may threaten the liberties
of the people, but they are pretty
bandy things to have around once in
awhile.
Mrs. RuTUERroRD B. Hayes died
at her home iu Fremont, Ohio, at G :30
Tuesday morning, June 25. A modest,
earnest, warm-hearted woman, who
went her way, not unduly elated
by honors that came to her, nor em
bittered or depressed by detraction
aimed at those near her, doing quietly
-bat with a glad eagerness, whatever
her hands found to do that would
make the world a better and happier
place to live in, a noble type

We ark sorry to note that the Frank
fort Consulate seems to have slipped
from tho bands of onr friend, B. W.
Turner, of the Sixth District. Biz
weeks in Washington and lots of good
dollars and some other fellow gets
the prize after all. "How poor are
they that bang on Princes' favors,"
or words to that effect.
James Whitcomb Riley's "Knee
Deep In Jane," which the Register
printed three weeks ago is going the
rounds. It is the lines,
"Plaenel If they alnt somoln' In
Work 'at kinder goes agin
My convictions! long abont
Here In June especially 1"
that catch the average Kansas editor
this seasou of the year.
Champion: A committee of the
English House of Lords has discover
ed that many men in the manufactur
ing district of Manchester work eigh
teen hours a day and receive only $10
per month. This is the sort of compe
tition the English and American Free
Traders want our American working
men to meet, without protection of the
"robber tariff."
There are signs of the dawning of
a new era when a Democratic paper
like the Wellington Standard can say,
commenting upon the transformation
of the WalruS brewery buildings at
Lawrence, "a tannery and shoefaotory
may not make as much money as a
healthy brewery, but at the same time
tho new plant is worth ten times more
tothe community than the oldone was."
The old lie has got started again to
the effect that the only thing neces
sary to learn to swim is to "realize
that your' body is so much lighter
than the water that you will surely
float if you will only stop trying to
prevent It." We presume every boy
in Christendom has been told this,
and about nine out of ten have nearly
strangled to death before tbey found
out that it Isn't so.
A canvasser in Yates Center sold
400 copies of tbe Bible In one week,
says tho Leroy Reporter, and its edi
tor 'infers from this item that the
Salvation Army, which is quite strong
In Yates, has done some good.
Neodesha Register.
But the Yates Center Tribune spoils
the pretty little story by saying that
the Bibles were traded to a Democrat
io real e3tate dealer for a town lot, and
were by him exchanged Jfor cork
screws.
The republicans make a terrible
howl about anarchists and and dyna
mits, when tbey think they can shoul
der a little odium on some other party,
but when they harbor and support an
open ana avowed anarcnist in an Im
portant State office never a word do
you here in tho 'way of protest from
the republican press. Why do not
these great religious and moral sheets
demand the removal of anarchists
from our State house. They'are there
and the Jproof is abundant. Chetopa
uemocrat.
Then why don't you name the men
and produce the proof? Talk is cheap.
What has become of Eugene Ware
and his Arlington poem? We have
not heard of either since tbe former
went to Washington three weeks ago.
Paola Times.
As for the poet, if your ears had been
open you would have heard the cheers
and laughter that rang from the ban
quet hall of the Loyal Legion at Kan
sas City the other night in response to
his wise and witty talk about "The
women of the War." And as for the
poem, wait for another volume of the
"Rhymes of Ironqulll," which Is to
appear soon, and you will find it in full.
The shortage of the late postmaster
at Lawrence is a little over $5,000.
Postmaster Shannon alleges that
Woodruff, the assistant postmaster,
got away with it, while Woodruff
charges that Shannon overdrew his
salary. Woodruff has been arrested,
and bound over to appear in the dis
trict court. Champion.
From "inside" advices which we
have from Lawrence, we venture the
guess that the case against Woodruff
will not be pushed very hard if some
of the prominent Democrats of Doug
lass county can help it; he knows too
much,
The Hutchinson JYeu' now says
I" instead of "wc" in its editorial
columns. It is undoubtedly trne that
the "we" has been pretty hard work
ed Id some cases of amateur "journal
ism;" but for all that it will not be
easily displaced. Aside from the ego
tism of the "I", anarticle thusjwritten
f c"ry ,w,eIht one writ"
icu iu hid um oijic. u ucu a uiui
says "I" it is his personal opinion,
but when he says "we," it means the
paper; and no man can so thoroughly
Identify himself with his paper, even
though eerybody knows they are
one and the Bame, that the distinction
will be lost sight of.
Emporia Republican: Our atten
tion has been called to a clipping or
two from other papers in which we
are quoted as expressing the opinion
that Hon. E. II. Funston, of the Sec
ond congressional district in this State,
will be defeated for a re-election. We
wish to say that we have never ex
pressed such an opinion and know no
reason why Mr. Funston should be so
treated at the hands of a constituency
whose principles and interests he has
so faithfully represented in the past.
As a news item we stated that certain
papers weie making war on him, bat
we did not Intend to convey the Idea
that he ought to be defeated in the
next convention. If honest, able and
faithful services are appreciated in the
Second district Mr. Funston will have
no trouble In his aspiration for another
term.
Thb latest Leavenworth Timet
rumor is to the effect that when Col.
D. R. Anthony resumes editorial con
trol of It on July l, he will begin a
fight on prohibition. We very much
question tbe reliability of this rumor.
Col. Anthony probably does not be
lieve in prohibition; but he believes la
being on top as much of the time
as possible, and he is certainly too
shrewd a man to deliberately take the
under side in this fight. For the antl
Bide is the under side in this State and
will always remain so. Prohibition
was voted down in Pennsylvania, It Is
true, and in Rhode Island. Bat Penn
sylvania and Rhode Island are not
legislating for Kansas, nor does Kan
sas have to lean on them for support.
She has stood alone In a good many
fights and she Is able to stand alone in
this one. Kansas is in the habit of
seeing to it that her reforms do not
progress backward, and the man who
faces to the rear in the hope that it may
be otherwise in this case, will find
himself getting only farther and far
ther behind the procession. We be
lieve Col. Anthony is too shrewd a
man to be "left" In this way.
Smith Frye, in his lost Sunday's
Washington letter to the Kansas City
Globe, has the following intciestlng
paragraph:
In the room of the Senate committee
on public lands to-day, Frank Flenni
ken dropped bis tired pen and licked
an envelope, as he said: "You can
imagine something of Senator Plumb's
correspondence, and Us almost Incred-
IHla Inrtroa.A In rnlnma mhAn T till
as expended
over $400 for stenographers alone,
since the 4th of March. This does not
include the money spent forstatlonerv
and postage. He has been obliged to
keep stenographers going all the time
or else he could not have handled one-
tenth of bis mail. I don't believe that
any other public man has so manv
letters, daily to read and answer as
this Senator has. Yet he takes It all
as a matter of coarse and attends to
each letter as though it was the only
oue received by him. Sometimes he
gets three or four days behind with his
mall and the people have to wait for
their answers, but they get them. Mr.
Plumb never allows a letter to ao un
answered." Mr. Flenniken might
have added, but he didn't: "We are
both pretty well worn out."
A OOOD START.
Has anyone taken note that the
"young crowd" In Kansas are making
their way pretty close to the front in
the literary line? W. H. Carrnth, of
Lawrence, was Introduced before the
Suffrage Convention at Boston the
other day as "born and bred In Kan
sas, and a Professor in her State Uni
versity," and read a strong and stlrrlug
poem. The Register has published
a number of his verses and they are
rapidly winning their way into the
best magazines. Tom Morgan, of
Garnett, has earned a generous salary
for several years by writing short sto
ries for the Inter-Ocean and other
prominent papers. Mrs. Florence
Finch Kelley, of Miami county, and a
graduate of the University, has pub
lished a novel, "Frances, a story for
men and women," which is already
in its fourth edition. AV. H. Simpson,
of Manhattan, is a frequent contributor
of verses to the Chicago Tribune and
other papers. Miss Hattie Ilorner, of
El Dorado, has not sought an audience
outside of Kansas, so far as we have
noticed, but her frequent contributions
to the home papers are widely quoted
and it is understood that she will soon
publish a book of poem3. Glen Miller,
of Troy, (a nephew of -'Old Sol") and
a graduate of the University, is travel
ing through Europe and contributing
letters to a syndicate of newspapers.
Will White, of Lawrence, although
but a school boy, has already done
some of the brightest work the Law
rence papers have ever shown, and
will be heard from when he gets ready
for business.
There may be other names that de
serve mention, but these come within
our personal acquaintance; and remem
bering that all, or nearly all, of them
are yet under thirty, it must be ad
mitted tnat tne snowing Is a very flat
tering one. Kansas will demonstrate.
one of these days, that the prairies as
well as tne mountains, can furnish in
spiration for novelists and poets.
Following upon the July chapters
of "The Life of Lincoln" which, as
already announced, deecribe tbe presi
dent's renominatiou and Mr. Greely's
self-suggested peace trip to Niagara
there will probably be only six more
Instpllmcnts of this remarkable history
in the Century series. It is said that
these concluding chapters deal with
the most important and absorbing per
sonal and political topics, to which
Messrs. Nicol.y and Hay bring a vast
fund of special information. Lincoln's
sagacity in dealing with men and
measures (and occasionally his humor)
come out in strong relief in the chap
ters that give the inside view of tbe
attempt of the radicals to defeat tbe
renomlnatlon of the) nre.IdenL.of ihe
